There is actually a light inside that comes on and is visible through the eyes. It is as if a candle was lit where there was darkness before in that body. What is remarkable is that the recognition of it in another is your realization that the same light of God also dwells within you. Sometimes it is a confirmation that you also are on the same plane spiritually and sometimes it lets you know not only that you have far to go personally, but also that it is attainable.The awakening! Seeing the amber color of things in darkness. Knowing things and you don't know how you know them. Feeling almost everything and yet nothing was said to induce this awareness. Closing your eyes and lifting up your hands to heaven and feeling the cleasing.

Knowing that you are not from here and can not convince yourself to "GO"......Others who are of this awakened status telling you that you have already choosen to "stay"....

I have not choosen I tell them. They then say "Then come"........

It's so close.I have the answer and still this question eludes me.........Absonite, I feel that this is what you are referring to. If I'm wrong then it sure won't be the first time. If I'm right,we have lots to talk about later.....Possibly another great topic?

Have you made any enemies here or rubbed anyone the wrong way?(Have you gone out of your way to rub anyone the wrong way??)

I can see how some people here tend to take the debate a bit too personally, and to go out of their way to make it personal, too, if you know what I mean...

Member Rated: posted 01-14-2005 10:17 PM --------------------------------------------------------------------------------"Some people are so rude."Ditto to that.

Blue One, I regard you pretty favorably. Most of what I have seen you write here seems pretty articulate, like Dawn said. I would also say that you have done a lot of reading. I see you as a young guy in your mid to late twenties, who has probably been to college and has a mostly cheerful out look on life. Am I right?

Member Rated: posted 01-15-2005 12:15 AM --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Short answer: No. All wrong, although the outlook on life seems quite accurate.Mid to late 20's, eh? Not correct.

Perhaps i'm still a teenager, but am simply advanced for my age? (if that's the case, you make me sound OLD!)

Were you right, I'd compliment you, but...

wanna try again?

AS far as prizes go, I'd best not tell you what you WOULD have gotten had you guessed correctly, because if I tell you, you'd cry with grief, seeing as now, you won't be getting it.

it is irresponsible to go around deleting threads like that. It's not just your work, it's everyone's work, and it's read by the world. ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Disappearing threads

Warning to all posters

Anything you post in a topic created by this person or any of her new aliases will be deleted by her without notice.

Warning IP: 205.188.116.9

Docyabut, SpiritWalker, Petunia and Lucy Fur are the same person.

Docyabut, this housewife from Ohio, with nothing better to do than post nearly 4000 posts of inane banter just deleted another complete topic...... The Burgeoning EUGENICS movement ..... with over 3 pages of information and replies from numerous posters.

This is not the first time she has done this. After she deleted the entire Urantia Papers topic with over 3 pages of information and numerous posters replies she was warned about her socially arrogant and irresposible behavior. She ignored the advice and arrogantly responded that they were "her" topics and she could do whatever she damned well pleased.

I disagree.

In the future I will no longer respond to her in any fashion nor post in any topic she begins.

Member Rated: posted 01-15-2005 11:40 PM --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Okay Abs, how about a NEW approach.Instead of NOT posting (which would really be a shame) how about saving everything you DON'T want deleted, so that it's retrievable?

If I could, I would enforce a rule stating that you MUST give a week's notice BEFORE you delete a thread, but hey, I don't have total control (yet *snicker* ).

(Abs, after reading (figuratively) countless posts from Spirit stating that Doc should be OFF the list, I must ask: Are you sure you're right about this?

It is a dissapointing thing when you're accused of something you're innocent of. (my recent hate mail springs to mind...(your accusations are similar in that they are focussed specifically at a person who MAY be innocent of the charges..))

Member Rated: posted 01-16-2005 02:20 PM --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Wow. Well, I promise not to delete any of my topics, no matter how snotty anyone gets to me on it.Alright, Bluducky:

Early twenties?

No college?

You can't read??

Now you have me confused!

Member Rated: posted 01-16-2005 02:44 PM --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Well, I have received another piece of this lovely 'hate mail', and this time "The gloves are off" I am told, and I "Had better be careful from now on".puh.. It's so fun having admirers

Miss Jennie, if you're THAT intrigued by me, you are more than welcome to email me, or send me an ICQ/MSN message. I will answer you then.

Member Rated: posted 01-16-2005 09:41 PM --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Bluducky, who is the "hate mail" from, Docyabut, SpiritWalker, Petunia, Lucy Fur, or perhaps a combination of all of the above?

Member Rated: posted 01-17-2005 12:08 AM --------------------------------------------------------------------------------If I knew, I could tell you, but as the case may be...Rock, we WERE discussing love. If you have something more to contribute, by all means, be Dawn's guest!

Member Rated: posted 01-17-2005 08:40 PM --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Bluducky,It sounds like you have more than enough admirers at the moment.

(What is an ICQ/MSN message?)

I give up. I can see why you prefer to keep such personal details about yourself a secret, though, here, as people here would doubtless derive preconceived notions about you and use said details against you!

Member Rated: posted 01-17-2005 11:25 PM --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Thank you Jennie, you've hit the nail on the head that time. Too much information about myself (or anyone else, for that matter) can, and DOES sometimes find it's way back to haunt you. I'm completely innocent, and yet, I have attracted vile hatred somehow...(You've never heard of ICQ? Or MSN Messenger? They are chat programs that let you talk to each other 'live'...)

Yes, I am from Australia

right now, it's hot, and a storm is fast approaching, as is common this time of year. (it's eerily dark right now, though still light time)
